Easy No-Bake Eclair Cake Recipe




This No-Bake Eclair Cake is very easy to make and delicious! .. but a little too sweet! If I make again with probably add some raspberries or another fresh fruit to cut the sweetness a little. Does take overnight to set so make ahead of time. I loved it as love eclairs!


Easy No-Bake Eclair Cake

Ingredients:
  •     2 3.5 oz package of instant vanilla pudding mix
  •     1 8 oz container of whipped topping (COOL WHIP) thawed
  •     3 cups milk
  •     2 package of graham cracker squares
  •     1 tub of chocolate frosting


Directions:

  1.  In a medium bowl, mix together the pudding mix, milk and Cool Whip.
     In an 9 x 13 baking dish, arrange a single layer of graham cracker squares on the bottom.
  2. You may have to break them up a bit to get enough crackers to cover the bottom of your dish.
  3.  Spread half of the pudding mixture on top of the crackers.
  4. Layer another layer of graham crackers over the pudding mixture.
  5. Then layer the other half of the pudding mixture on top of crackers.
  6. Top with a final layer of graham crackers.
  7. Put plastic wrap over dish and put in fridge for about 30 min to an hour to allow pudding to set.
     
  8. When ready, put the tub of chocolate frosting in the microwave for about 15 seconds to soften (remove lid and aluminum foil top before microwaving).
     
  9. Take out and stir frosting. It should be easily spreadable now.
  10. Remove plastic wrap from dish and evenly spread chocolate frosting all over the top layer of graham crackers.
  11. Place plastic wrap over top of dish and put back in fridge.
  12. Now, forget about this dessert until tomorrow. This dessert gets better over time. The graham crackers need time to soften up.
  13. When ready, slice and serve!
